Gift Shops in Crossville, TN

“This is a really nice little shop, with so many options for model railroaders to buy.

They had HO scale locomotives, railcars, and a ton more!

The person who was there, was very kind, and knew a lot about model railroading!

It is closed Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.

I would definitely go back! I recommend this shop 100%”

“I did a glass mosaic class with Angela. I really enjoyed it! She has a great space to work. She was very patient and fun to work with. It was a bit of a ways from Knoxville but it was a beautiful drive and well worth it. I will be signing up for other classes.”

“Recently had the pleasure of dealing with Stevi and the ladies here.
My wife and I were up in the air about what flowers to get for our outdoor pots. We looked into artificial ones as an option.
Great shop with helpful staff, lots of choices, fast turnaround, and great final product.
I did spray them with some clearcoat gloss, as per Stevi, to help them last.
Great job, Krazy Squirrel.”

“Title: “How the Crossville Depot — and a Mysterious Banana Peeler — Saved My Marriage”

I never believed love could be rekindled over a cup of coffee, but the Crossville Depot changed everything. My wife and I had been arguing over the usual stuff — thermostat settings, laundry folding technique, and who really let the dog eat the ham. The spark was fading faster than my patience at a four-way stop.

Then came him — the mysterious man with the banana peeler. He sat at the counter, peeling bananas with such grace, such quiet purpose, that it stopped our argument mid-sentence. My wife and I watched in awe. The rhythm of that peeler — shhhk, shhhk — was like a metronome syncing our heartbeats again.

He glanced over, nodded once, and said, “Sometimes, you just gotta peel away the bitterness.” Then he went back to his banana like some kind of potassium prophet.

That was the moment everything changed. My wife laughed for the first time in weeks. We ordered pie. We talked until closing time about love, forgiveness, and why we’d let something so sweet slip away.

The food? Incredible. The atmosphere? Warm, nostalgic, and full of second chances. The mysterious banana peeler? Still out there somewhere, saving souls one fruit at a time.

Thank you, Crossville Depot — for great service, better coffee, and for reminding me that love, like a banana, sometimes just needs the right touch to open up again.”
